Firstly, I needed a camera with 'features' that were a little above normal but not too complicated to use. After a lot of research and a lot of reviews concerning the TZ8 and TZ10, all reviewers continued to use the TZ7 as the reference of opinion. Based on this I decided that if the TZ7 was the baseline, yet superseded by the 8 and the 10, then for pure value it had to be the TZ7. I was not disappointed! The TZ7 ticks the boxes. Its very easy to use. It starts up very quickly, takes snaps very quickly and the quality, even in low light is amazing. The flash recharges quickly and the battery life is very good, 3 days of snapping whilst on holiday got mine half used. I shall not go into too much detail, but as I scratch the surface of what it can do I get more impressed. I can see why a lot of reviewers use this as the reference. Needless to say, a purchase from ebay was the greatest value. I received my purchase a week later considerably cheaper than places such as pixmania and amazon....thank you Ebay! The only downside is the camera is not small. Certainly this is not a problem as you have to factor in the amazing zoom lens, which for something this size just makes picking out pictures of interest from a distance a doddle!! Finally, the second reason I bought this camera was the HDMI video recording. I wanted to capture video of my kids, on the cuff, and to say I'm impressed would be an understatement!! The files created are compatible with the Playstation 3, which I have an LG NAS drive with DNLA connected up. Its easy to place the files in the DNLA folder and play back through the PS3 onto my 42 inch 1080p TV. The video playback is amazing, truelly HD and impressive. What is also great is stereo sound recording with the video. An important consideration to this camera is a SDHC memory card that must be class 6 or above. Anything lower will cause the recording to fail as the camera can not save to the card quick enough. Be warned though, do buy carefully as there is a glut of low quality SDHC cards on the net that claim to be x size and x class..I was stung with a 32 gig card which was rated as Class 6, it turned out to be Class 2 with failed memory cells. There is a card tester software freely available on the net, but expect cards this size to test over several hours! Also search the net for counterfeit SDHC cards, you will be suprised! Only buy from reputable sellers such as Amazon, Pixmania, Ebuyer etc...for me Ebuyer offered the best value cards and my purchases from here have been good. Video recording length is limited to 15 mins per clip, this is due to the file type on the camera. Not a problem as most clips tend to be a few mins for me. You can also lower the quality for uploading on the net, such as utube. I have not tried this yet as I use an up-loader that converts on the fly. Overall, this is an impressive camera, well built, all features to hand, easy to use and reliable....with a bonus of PS3 compatible video files that will play from a NAS drive! 10 out of 10 for me!Read full review
It a great camera. The quality is excellent and the x12 zoom is brilliant. It's a little bit chunkier than the standart digital camera but still very nett and fits in your handbag. It would recommend this product.
I bought it for its pocket size and good video recording capability and am v pleased with video and still pic results
I bought this as a present for a friend, I have one of my own and am really pleased with it. It is very simple to operate on automatic only having a few options to choose from the camera itself, but if you want to do some fancy stuff there are plenty of opportunities from the menus. Good quality, compact, efficient and versatile.
For this money i can by 3 digital camera (for example samsung) with a much better quality camera. Good filming but let's not forget that it is primarily photo camera, no video, and he must make good photographs. I am very disappointed
